Q:

What qualifications do your instructors hold?

A:

Our instructors come from a wide variety of backgrounds with numerous talents. They share a love for Christ and a commitment to teach Biblical principles in all subject areas.

All adults who work directly with students have passed a background check. Please note that our instructors do not have specific training for teaching students with learning disabilities or certifications for administering medical care.

Courses will run September – May.

Q:

What do classes cost?

A:

Class prices vary and are paid directly to the teachers and can be found under Class Descriptions. You can then click the class you're interested in to see all the class details.

Q:

What is your policy for extreme weather days?

A:

In the event of inclement weather (snow, ice, hurricane), we will make an announcement of cancellation and/or delayed opening, early dismissal, etc. before 7 A.M if possible. A SMS text and forum post will be sent out. We will also post on the Cobblestones FB Group. Since we have teachers/students coming from several counties, we feel we should make our decision based on weather in the western/rural areas, not just in the local Richmond area. If Powhatan County schools close, we will also close.
